The Western PA Series will consist of several events over the course of 2024. Anyone who enters one of the events this season will be entered to win their division's WPAS Trophy at the final event of the season. The series works by allotting points based on the percent of the field you beat in your division at each event plus additional points for podium finishes. The WPAS Finale will count as DOUBLE POINTS. At the end of the season, per division, the individual with the most points in their division will be crowned winner with a WPAS Division Championship Trophy and additional payout collected from the events prior. NOTE: If you play multiple divisions, either playing both days or changing divisions between events, we will track both, but you will only be eligible to win a single division at the end of the season (whichever is the more advanced of the two)

The event TD is responsible for all refunds/cancellations. We follow PDGA Event Rule 1.03 for all refunds unless extenuating circumstances are communicated to the TD.

A: Players MUST email or phone their withdrawals to the Tournament Director only at the contact information posted for the tournament. Discussions with persons other than the Tournament Director, including other tournament staff, shall not be considered official.

B: Players who have paid MORE than a nominal waitlist fee of $10 to be on an event’s waitlist who do not get into the event, or who officially request to withdraw from the waitlist prior to the event’s published closure of registration and waitlist replacements, will receive a 100% cash refund minus the $10 waitlist fee.

If the player’s spot is NOT filled, the TD has the choice to provide EITHER a 50% cash refund OR just the player’s pack the player would have received if they had attended (minus the cost of shipping). In the case of a player in a Pro division for an event without a Pro player pack worth at least 25% of the Entry Fee, the TD will provide the 50% cash refund.
